Description
Overview

Oil Filter Boxes

A cylinder with residue on it — the box has to hold a shape and resist a stain.

Filters are round in a square box and often carry residual oil. A coated interior and a fitted footprint solve both problems at once.

What We Make

The full kit of capabilities.

Grease-Resistant Lining
Contains residual oil rather than letting it soak through.
Close Cylindrical Fit
Sized to the filter diameter so it cannot move.
Corner Inserts
Fills the void a round part leaves in a square box.
Diameter × Height Sizing
Quoted the way a cylindrical part is actually measured.
Oversized Part Numbering
High contrast, multiple faces.
Application Panels
Vehicle fitment listings for trade buyers.
Reinforced Bases
Filters are heavy for their footprint.
Barcode Zones
Placed and sized to scan first time.
Unlined Board
Residual oil on a filter can wet a box through, not merely stain it. A grease-resistant liner is doing real work here.
Loose Fit in a Rectangular Box
The filter moves in the corner voids and a heavy metal canister damages both its own seal face and the box.

How to measure
01
Measure the product

A cylinder needs two figures, not three: the diameter across its widest point, and the height. Measure the item itself, not the pack you happen to use today.

02
Add clearance

Allow 2–3 mm on the diameter so the product drops in without binding, and a few millimetres of headroom if a lid, pillow or tissue sits on top.

03
Give us the order

We quote round formats as Diameter × Height. Tell us whether you are working in millimetres or inches and we match it.

What It Costs

Oil Filter Boxes is priced per specification rather than from a fixed list — the same box in two different finishes can land at very different numbers. Below is what actually moves the price, so you can shape the spec before you request a quote.

What moves the price
Quantity

The single biggest lever. Unit cost falls sharply as volume rises, because setup and tooling spread across more pieces.

Material and thickness

Board weight and stock choice change both the raw material cost and the shipping weight of the finished run.

Finishing

Foil, spot UV, embossing and soft-touch each add a pass on press. One or two lift the box; five compound the cost.

Print coverage

Full-bleed print inside and out costs more than a one-sided design on natural stock.

Inserts and hardware

Foam, moulded pulp, velvet pillows, magnets and ribbon are priced per piece on top of the box itself.

Timeline

Standard production is the base rate. Rush moves you up the production queue and carries a surcharge.

— Frequently Asked Questions —

Questions, answered.

Everything you need to know about Oil Filter Boxes.

The problem is the four corner voids a round part leaves in a rectangular carton. Left empty, the filter moves — and a heavy metal canister sliding around damages its own seal face and works on the box from inside.

Two approaches:

  • Size the carton closely to the diameter. The simplest and cheapest fix. The voids are still there but small enough that the filter cannot build momentum.
  • Add a corner insert. A simple die-cut or moulded piece that fills the voids and holds the filter centred. Worth it for larger or heavier filters, and for anything shipped individually rather than palletised.

Because these parts are cylindrical, we quote them as diameter × height rather than three figures. Send us the filter dimensions — or the filter itself — and we will size the carton around it.
